While most people would agree that in order to succeed as a business, you need to grow your customer base, how you actually grow and monetize is a different story.

Have you ever attended a live webinar? I’m guessing you have, they are everywhere! Personally, I’m a huge fan! While I never really enjoyed traveling to attend in-person seminars because of expensive travel, hotels, and food, webinars are a completely different story. All you need to pay for a webinar is the cost of “entry.” You can safely stay comfy at home and learn everything you’d get from an in-person seminar for a fraction of the cost and time investment. If you’re a small business owner, I’m sure that the idea of putting on your own webinar has occurred to…

Are you consciously aware of how you purchase products and conduct sales transactions? I’m not talking about the process of paying for the items in your cart.

Wouldn’t it be great to have an assistant at your beck and call? All you’d need to do is hit the intercom on your desk, and like a flash, they appear! Unfortunately, that’s beyond the means of most small business owners. Many of them work out of their home. Unless they draft their kids into the role, (take it from me, this isn’t a great idea! haha!) having an assistant might seem like it simply isn’t possible. Or is it? The Internet Created Countless Jobs The internet has created countless brand-new types of jobs over the last twenty years, including…
